There’s an op-ed by Christine Flowers, a conservative Catholic with a problem. She isn’t happy that her religion is presented in a less than favorable light by some emails that are supposedly from the Clinton campaign, released by Wikileaks. She demands that Ms. Clinton apologize for what one of her staffers said. Let’s see how … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – insisting on apologies for telling the truth

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “I’m shocked, shocked…..”
(addendum: unsurprisingly, we have some of those "shocked" people now insisting that Trump is perfectly fine now, including a number of pastors. Thanks folks, nothing like showing the religious right is simply cowards and hypocrites) “I’m shocked, shocked that gambling is going on in here.” “Your winnings, sir.” Just finished watching CBS Sunday Morning, where … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “I’m shocked, shocked…..”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a response to Dale re: prayer and free will
(10/20/2016 - I've had a lot of Christians follow recently and like this post, as well as other posts about how religion fails. Not sure why this is, but I'm more than happy to see people approve and agree with my posts.) I’ve encountered a new Christian apologist on a friend’s website. I’ll first put … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a response to Dale re: prayer and free will
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and one more instance of Christians telling just a little lie, Franklin Graham
Franklin Graham, the son of Billy Graham, famous American Christian evangelist, was in Harrisburg today. It was part of his tour insisting that one needs to pray for America. He didn't endorse a candidate, but it's not hard to know who he wants to win, mostly because he has said it himself despites the claims … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and one more instance of Christians telling just a little lie, Franklin Graham

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – beating back the theocrats again, Pennsylvania
Here, in my lovely home state of Pennsylvania, the PA House of Representatives has been sued by some residents for not allowing a secular e.g. non-theist based invocation before the body.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and now for more questionable Christian nonsense
During the run up to the Reason Rally, Ray Comfort was touting his new movie The Atheist Delusion. This was going to be *the* answer to non-Christians, and it was going to be such a surprise. He was also going to give out $25,000 in Subway gift cards to anyone who would take his book. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and now for more questionable Christian nonsense
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – so now we have an ark that can’t float, for how many millions of dollars?
Most folks have seen the news stories about the exemplary idiot Ken Ham and his boat shaped building that he has built to supposedly show how true Christianity is. We also have one more large, useless, and somewhat pretty building built to support flagging faith. Now, where in the bible does it say that this … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – so now we have an ark that can’t float, for how many millions of dollars?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a month since the Reason Rally, what happened to those gift cards?
It’s been about a month since the Reason Rally in DC, and I was wondering what happened to those supposed 5,000 gift cards Ray Comfort had ready and waiting for the rally goers if they took a copy of his book. It was announced that these cards would be going to charity. Some atheists praised … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a month since the Reason Rally, what happened to those gift cards?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the legion of doom, Trump has Michele Bachman as part of his spiritual team
"The religious right movement has struggled for decades to play a leading role in choosing the Republican Party’s presidential nominee, but this year, social conservatives declared early on, would finally be their year. And yet, after doing everything right and carefully following their specific strategy, the GOP ended up going with a thrice-married adulterous casino … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the legion of doom, Trump has Michele Bachman as part of his spiritual team
